Are you playing small? Does fear drive your decision-making? Does life feel more draining than energizing? 

Are you living up to your potential? 

These are a lot of big questions to be asking yourself on a Monday morning, but they're crucial if you want to live with authenticity and intention. 

Need a little inspriation? 

David Young is here to tell his story of how he overcame the scarcity (and scared) mindset to find a more fulfilling - and sustainable - life and career! 

What if the one thing you can’t stop thinking about is the exact thing the world needs from you? In this week’s episode of No More Mondays, I’m joined by longtime friend, speaker, author, and creator of The Thing, Terry Weaver. 

We dig into the big questions—why we get stuck, why we don’t start, and how to finally act on the thing that won’t leave you alone.

From the illusion of safety and the power of community over competition to why your gifts aren’t meant to stay hidden, we're covering it all. 

Whether your dream is a whisper, a calling, or just a nudge you haven’t quite figured out yet, this conversation will light a fire under you to stop waiting and start doing.

If you’ve been sitting on an idea, wondering when it’s “the right time” to act—this is your sign.

Let’s be honest—most of us think of negotiation as a high-stakes, high-stress, boardroom-only kind of thing. But what if negotiation is actually just... conversation? This week on No More Mondays, I sit down with Susie Tomenchok, executive coach, keynote speaker, and negotiation expert, to reframe what negotiation really is—and how to get more comfortable doing it every day.

We dig into why everything is a negotiation (yes, even who’s doing the dishes), how to ditch the win/lose mindset, and how to build confidence by shifting our perspective. Susie shares a practical framework (P.A.C.E.), surprising research, and tips you can use immediately to ask for what you need—without feeling like a jerk.

Whether you’re negotiating a raise, asking your partner to walk the dog, or navigating a client conversation, Susie’s wisdom will help you communicate more effectively and advocate for yourself with authenticity.

If you’ve ever felt weird about negotiating, this episode is for you.

🎧 Tune in and let’s normalize the art of asking.

We might be climbing up on a soapbox today—and for good reason.

In this week's upcoming episode of No More Mondays, I sit down with speaker, author, and executive communication coach Cindy Skalicky to dig into the art (and science) of impactful messaging.

If you’ve ever wondered why some presentations fall flat while others ignite action, this conversation is for you.

Cindy works with science and tech leaders to build persuasive communication skills that actually move people—whether it's pitching an idea, getting buy-in from a team, or leading through change. Together, we explore everything from rhetoric and storytelling to slide deck design, credibility-building, and the one mistake most leaders make when sharing ideas.

Cindy also shares a sneak peek of her upcoming book, Red Light, Green Light, and how her proven “HOW TO” model helps people make their message land—and last.

Whether you’re a leader, a coach, a small business owner, or just someone who wants to communicate with more clarity and impact, this one’s packed with practical gems (and a few well-earned laughs).

🎯 Spoiler alert: People don’t always need to hear what you want to say—they need to hear what will move them to act.

👉 Tune in, take notes, and maybe even grab a spot on the book waitlist while you’re at it. 

Health and wellness shouldn’t feel like a full-time job—but for busy professionals, it often does. Between work, life, and everything in between, fitness and nutrition are usually the first things to go when schedules get tight. 

But what if staying healthy didn’t require an extreme overhaul?

On this episode of No More Mondays, I sit down with Nolan Cunningham, a strength and conditioning coach who’s all about making wellness work for real life. We dive into practical strategies for improving your health without restrictive diets, crazy workout schedules, or gimmicky fads. 

From habit-stacking and small daily wins to avoiding health media traps and outlandish claims, we cover how to build sustainable systems that keep you feeling and performing your best!

Ever wondered how some people seem to crack the social media code while the rest of us are stuck in the algorithm abyss? 

In this episode of No More Mondays, I sit down with digital marketing powerhouse Austin Armstrong—who has amassed over 3 million followers across channels—to talk about what really moves the needle when it comes to online influence.

We’ll explore the intersection of AI and content creation, why authenticity always beats vanity metrics, and how even the most camera-shy can create engaging impactful content. 

Plus, Austin shares insights on the evolving digital landscape, the challenges that come with influence (hello, trolls and burnout), and a sneak peek at his upcoming AI Marketing World conference.

If you’re looking for practical, no-fluff strategies to amplify your online presence—without selling your soul to the algorithm—this episode is for you. 

Tune in, and let’s get real about digital influence.
